What You Need
- Red T-Shirt
- Transfer printing paper for dark clothes
- Bright blue boa
- Fabric Glue
- Templates (ours is from SearchSavvyClipArt @ etsy)
- Headband
- Some cute little kiddos
How We Did It
1. Print off template from Etsy onto your dark clothing transfer paper (there's no need to mirror the image so it's very simple)
2. Cut the image out. Simply cut along the black outer line.
3. Peel off the backing and center the image onto your shirt.
4. Cover with ironing paper provided and iron on. Shirt is then ready for wearing!
1.I had each put on an old headband from their drawer and I measured out where I wanted to boa feathers to cover.
2. Cut the boa to the desired size.
3. Squeeze fabric glue on the headband and push down the boa.
4. I sat this over a candle hurricane to dry overnight but it really only takes maybe 1 hour to be able to wear.
